Laura Mae Northrup (she/her), MFT is an author, educator, somatic psychotherapist, and podcaster. Her first book Radical Healership is a spiritually-informed, anticapitalist guide for healing practitioners who seek to build a values-driven healing practice. And it's out today! 

In this episode, Eryn and Laura talk about:

• Her journey writing her new book
• Emotions & book writing!
• Surrendering & letting emerge
• Overshaping our experiences
• Living in complexity
• Grappling with money (and charging money!) within capitalism
• The degradation of spirituality and healing
• The history of taking away people’s access to healing and spirituality as an intentional strategy of domination and disempowerment
• How psychedelics and entheogens help us heal sexual trauma
• Trauma as a spiritual wound
• The need to experience so much joy and beauty as people in care roles
• Right sized-ness
• How you sustain the path as a facilitator of healing work
